Description
Microbial lectins, proteins that make it possible for microbes to adhere to surfaces, have been identified as the major determinant of virulence in the infection of plants, animals, and humans, and are involved in a wide variety of cell-cell interactions. This contributed volume brings together for the first time information, much of it heretofore unpublished, which represents the most current knowledge of the subject. The book contains many illustrations and an extended table of microbial species with their associated lectins and agglutinins.
